Hello Joakim. That Curves tool in Photoshop is performing a mapping of the colour values. You plug in a value A and it outputs a value B. In mathematics, the name of the device that does this is a "function." In order to transfer that Curves tool to a pixel shader, you need to devise a way to input a value A and get a…
1TB HD Space Core i7 quadcore processor, 1.73 ghz 8GB RAM Nvidia GeForce GT 435M (kinda bleh but works) I got it new from Dell for $1100 USD 2 years ago. With that reference, I would say you could probably sell your desktop for about $800 maybe? I'm not super sure, but a new brand I would think it would price around $1000,…
Maya and Mudbox can be installed and made to run on almost any Linux distribution as well, although you will probably have to jump through some hoops to do so on Ubuntu compared to RHEL/CentOS. Mari and 3D-Coat both run really well on Linux too. The setup I've arrived at involved a couple of days of mucking about. I'm…
Wire Parameters are what we used in GTA4, but lately I've been experimenting with Float Expression controllers instead - they allow easy clamping, so you can say rotate this bone at 50% of its parents rotation, but only between here and here. You can set up float expression controllers for objects to control their position…
Hey, We're developing a game with the a mechanic looking like Temple Run. 70% of it is done, the old coder is way too busy so we need another one. Our budget is way tooooo low, we can't pay for a new one. We're needing help. It's only some simple details that's missing. If interested, please send e-mail to:…
Rion411 Thank you! I'm definitly completly obsessed with the game myself for some reasons! Jandokenpon You are totally right, I did had a circle design ready, for some reason I just forgot to apply the right shader/texture to it, I didn't even notice! The guitar was rushed quite a bit, was trying to finish the project this…
All the organic stuff in my environment is done! I replaced the expensive plant meshes I once had that had each individual leaf as a mesh, and replaced them with transparent plane geometry that takes each plant from 1,000 polys to about 10. HUGE difference, needless to say. So now, I don't have to skimp on the amount of…
[ QUOTE ] As for the multicore thing, most games and apps these days take advantage of multicore. [/ QUOTE ] Like what? [ QUOTE ] As for the 7 core's being downgraded, they are not in terms of speed, but are in terms of instruction sets and prescision maths. [/ QUOTE ] That's still terms of speed. Just because the clock…
